California Not Ready for a Flu Crisis
by possibly noteworthy at 10:11 am EDT, Apr 17, 2006

"No one, and I repeat no one, is prepared for a pandemic that starts tomorrow."

"The famous line from emergency medical services is, we have trouble handling a Friday night. Handling a large pandemic, by most estimates, is out of the question."

"Even if there were enough beds — which there won't be — there won't be enough people. We have trouble getting enough nurses now."

"Will we close the schools? Will we shut down theaters? Will we shut down Disneyland? And what will that mean for the Orange County tax base? Those kinds of things need to be talked through ahead of time."
